    Re: Repaint and Reseal Fadal Enclosure

    For sealing the machine SikaFlex construction sealant would probably be OK.

    It's availible from Home depot in the contruction specialty area.

    Not on a machine, but on RV's, it stays pliable regardless of conditions. Plus as an adhesive it works very well, so it sticks and seals very well.

    Apparently Sikaflex is what Haas uses (fwiw)

    Permatex "Right Stuff" is also highly regarded

    Oh ok. Thanks. I was wondering was Haas used on their machines.

    LOL, a word to the wise, sealing an RV is a much harder task then sealing a CNC. If a product seals an RV that has temp swings from 40f-110f then it's going to seal a cnc enclosure just fine.
